Chapter 781: LinkedIn

The issue of philanthropy is actually a little sensitive to Simon's origin, Amy Pascal just teased a few words and stopped continuing, and said: "I just got the news in the morning that Vivendi has confirmed the internal promotion of Sandy Litwatt and Bill Michanik as CEO and president of Disney respectively, and will publicly announce his resignation next week, and Frank Wells will also retire." ”

Simon had also gotten the news and nodded, "I know." ”

The acquisition of Disney was completed at the end of last year, and the French Vivendi Group has been looking for suitable professional managers for the company. However, some of Vivendi's favorite candidates have repeatedly refused, including Michael Ovitz, the president of CAA, the couple Frank Marshall and Katherine Kennedy, the former Spielberg's right-hand man, Hollywood gold producer Joe Silvo, and even several executives under the Daenerys Entertainment Group.

Probably aware of what the circle was aware of, coupled with Vivendi's caution in delegating power, these external candidates have successively expressed their rejection.

In desperation, Vivendi had to promote executives from within Disney.

Sandy Litwater is the vice president and head of legal affairs at Disney, and Bill Michanick is president of Disney's home entertainment division, which oversees the distribution of videotapes and televisions.

The two were promoted to CEO and president of Disney respectively, which is equivalent to two consecutive promotions.

However, in terms of actual authority, the two are actually only equivalent to being promoted by one level.

According to the information obtained by Simon, after Sandy Litwater was promoted to CEO, he was actually in charge of the business of former President Frank Wells, mainly in the administrative affairs of corporate personnel and legal affairs. As president, Bill Michanick will directly manage the production business of former Jeffrey Katzenberg.

The core strategic planning and financial power of the company, which should belong to the CEO, are directly controlled by Vivendi headquarters.

This is not exactly what Vivendi's board of directors would like to see.

However, there are not so many good things in this world when you are not willing to delegate power and want to be good enough professional managers.

Privately has discussed more than once how to deal with Disney after being acquired by the Vivendi Group, Amy just mentioned this matter to Simon at this time, seeing that his boss already knew, he didn't say more, and said: "Eisner is trying to invest in the Internet field, partnering with Ovitz, and has also finalized a project, I had dinner with Nancy at Morton's restaurant last night, and I happened to meet them, and we chatted, a very interesting idea." ”

Simon was also a little surprised, and asked, "Is Eisner cured?"

Amy nodded: "It's okay now, it's just that the original quadruple bypass surgery was very risky, and it's okay to get through it." ”

Michael Eisner had a heart attack when he heard the news that Daenerys Entertainment would build Universal Studios in Europe, and he was almost not saved at the time, which Simon had learned earlier.

Disney President Frank Wells, who was supposed to die in a skiing accident last year, escaped the impact of Simon's big butterfly. If Eisner dies unexpectedly because of the news he released, Simon will inevitably feel a little guilty. Legitimate business competition has not reached the level of killing people, let alone Hollywood has not looked up and looked down.

Simon nodded slightly, skillfully pinched some Chinese fried noodles with chopsticks, and asked with a smile: "What project did Eisner invest in?"

Amy took a sip of the juice at hand and said, " Probably, it should be regarded as a workplace social networking site, this is the idea that Ovitz came up with, you know, Ovitz is very good at managing contacts, he thinks that it is completely possible to move the real network business model to the Internet, different from those recruitment websites that can only send resumes in a targeted manner, this workplace social networking site allows users to directly establish their own contacts in certain circles and display their information resumes more intuitively, and, after forming a circle, they can also obtain more accurate recruitment or application goals through mutual recommendations。 ”
